It is made with tea, sugar, and kombucha culture, a. k. a. SCOBY (Symbiotic Culture Of Bacteria and Yeast) which looks like a floating mushroom. Because of this, its also called mushroom tea.<\/p>\n

This live bacteria culture sets the arena for a fermentation process, which gives kombucha its slight tart, tangy taste, and fizz. Don\u2019t be surprised when you hear that kombucha is naturally bubbly, unlike forced carbonated sodas. It happens due to the continuous fermentation from bacterial (good guys) activities. This also makes kombucha a healthy substitute for carbonated sodas.<\/p>\n

Digging into its origin, the most widespread belief is that this ancient beverage was born in some 2000 years ago during the Chinese Quin Dynasty era and was spread across to Europe and other continents. Kombucha was consumed for millennia by many cultures for its numerous health and energizing properties. This ancient beverage is enriched with natural probiotics, enzymes, and vitamins that can enhance your digestion and immunity.<\/p>\n

The probiotics in kombucha are what makes it so desirable. Probiotics are good bacteria that are similar to the microorganisms that live in our intestine. Probiotics are beneficial for our gut-health, de-bloating, lowering cholesterol, and help to promote a healthy immune system. (80% of our immune system is our gut :O) Kombucha also contains B vitamins, known to promote energy and metabolism.[\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”What is floating in my Kombucha?”]Kombucha is a living beverage. Meaning, it continues to ferment. What you see floating in or on your kombucha is a little mother SCOBY – Kombucha Culture growing as a result of the natural fermentation. It is also an indication that your kombucha culture is healthy, alive, and kicking.[\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”What is raw & undiluted Kombucha ?”]Kombucha is a living beverage. Meaning, it continues to ferment. At Mohksha, we don\u2019t pasteurize (heating in high temperatures) our brew that will kill the good bacteria. This makes Mohksha a raw kombucha. We don\u2019t use water or other juices to dilute our culture. Meaning, when you drink Mohksha, you drink the most authentic form of Kombucha.[\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”Why is my Kombucha fizzy?”]Kombucha is a naturally carbonated drink due to continuous bacteria activities in this living beverage. So if your drink is fizzy, it\u2019s a good sign. But some flavors are less fizzier than others. If you keep a kombucha bottle out for a few weeks, be careful before you open it. There’s a risk of getting it exploded.[\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”What is in the bottom of my Kombucha bottle?”]Kombucha is made up of special bacteria and yeast culture. At the bottom of the bottle, you will see the residue of the yeast which is a by-product of the fermentation process of Kombucha[\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”How should I store an opened Kombucha bottle?”]Always keep it refrigerated to dormant the fermentation process. If you keep it out without refrigeration, it will turn too sour to drink. But the beauty is, it won\u2019t get spoilt. Kombucha never gets spoilt. It only gets too sour to drink.[\/vc_toggle][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_toggle title=”What are the benefits of Kombucha?”]<\/p>\n

  • A healthier substitute for sodas<\/li>\n
  • Naturally carbonated and bubbly<\/li>\n
  • It’s soooo damn yummy<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    [\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”How should I store Kombucha?”]Kombucha should be kept in a cool refrigerated environment to delay it\u2019s fermentation process. If you keep it out for few days, the culture will turn too sour to drink and you\u2019ll get a mouth full of SCOBY.\u00a0 Plus chilled kombucha is the tastiest kombucha.[\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”Is it good for kids & expecting mothers?”]Of course it is good for both the parties. Mohksha kombucha taste mild and sweet enough for a little kid and harmless enough for expecting mothers to consume as a health packed natural food intake. But if your kid is suffering from any health conditions, always consult your doctor beforehand. Same for expecting mothers.[\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”Why is my Kombucha very sour?”]If your kombucha is too sour to drink, that mean, it has been fermented for too long. It happens if you keep it out without refrigeration and the dormant fermentation process restarted.[\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”Why does it say, “Don\u2019t shake the bottle“?”]Kombucha is a naturally carbonated drink due to the bacterial activities from the fermentation process. Which means there’s a lot of natural carbon dioxide buildup in the bottle. The drink can shoot up like soda and you\u2019ll be left with half of the bottle to drink. That\u2019s sad.[\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”Is there alcohol in Kombucha?”]There’s a trace amount of alcohol in kombucha as a result of its natural fermentation. But it\u2019s such a negligible amount and you can never get high from it (sorry guys).[\/vc_toggle][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row user=”11612611867.e2bfe2e.6a42e5f2770746c3aa8a195f1be288a7″ size=”large” columns=”4″ target=”_self” slider=”1″ spacing=”” ajax=”” slider_autoplay=”” slider_stop_on_hover=”” slider_loop=”yes” hide_buttons=”” pagination_type=”hide” hide_fo=”” default_color=”#e1e1e1″ active_color=”#222″ large=”4″ notebook=”4″ tablet_land=”3″ tablet_portrait=”2″ mobile=”2″ number=”10″ title=”” username=”” link=”” slider_speed=”” slider_interval=””][vc_column][vc_empty_space][vc_custom_heading text=”#mohkshakombucha” font_container=”tag:h2|font_size:28px|text_align:center|line_height:1.6″ google_fonts=”font_family:Montserrat%3Aregular%2C700|font_style:700%20bold%20regular%3A700%3Anormal”][vc_empty_space]
